I think this is interesting because it is about homework which applies to all students. It has importance because it affects all students, it has meaning because people can relate to it , and it has proximity because it happened on the 10th of September.

I find this article newsworthy because it applies to me, and I feel and think many of the things that the article describes as a student. The article contains importance/impact, timeliness, and proximity. The article is important because it applies to the majority of high school students, which is a large chunk of our population. The topic it explains, excessive stress due to large loads of schoolwork, is something experienced by all of our as adolescents, and which can greatly impact our futures. The story is timely because for students, summer has just ended and given way to a new school year. While the school discussed is in the Fayette County School system, it applies to all high schools, across the nation, including my own.
